Super easy walking for all ages. Find a trail to add to the difficulty. Went with a friend for a guided tour, but guide never showed. For locals, not a big deal. You make do. For others who travels long distances, they were disappointed.

Excellent hike. Park at Pantol then do the 9 mile loop clockwise. Great open vistas with panoramic views plus deep forest sections plus must see places: Mountain Theater, West Point Inn and East Peak. Very steep 1/2 mile section just before the East Peak parking lot will provide a workout. This hike really showcases the mountain. Personal favorite. Hiking time: 4.5 hrs.
